Bates Motel

As you know in my free time I like to read, listen to music, hang out with my buddies and especially watch movies and series with my older sister Paulina even though she falls asleep almost every time we watch a movie, I understand her she studies a lot...she makes me look like a vagabond with all the stuff she has to memorize and learn, I mean she has ten courses D:
We started watching "Bates Motel" because a friend of hers recommended it. At first we had no idea of what the serie was about, we didn't related it to the movie "Psycho" by Alfred Hitchcock. After the first episode we understand it was the prequel of such famous movie. In the beginning I couldn't get used to see Norman as Norman because the actor who played him was the kid from "Charlie and the chocolate factory", he is not a kid anymore and has a more manly voice that doesn't match with his face hahahaha...so that's weird.
This serie just started so only has ten episodes, Paulina and I couldn't resist it and we watched the first season like in three days. The cool thing about "Bates Motel" is how the story develops, how in the beginning everything seems to be normal, it's just a mom and her son trying to start a new life after the dad's "accidental" death but then you start to know what their relationship is about...sometimes kinda creepy. Also, you get familiar to the events that occur in the town they live now, like deaths, murders, revenge, illegal transactions and corruption. 
I can't wait a year for the next season! I like the character of Norman because he is unpredictable and scary. I'm curious about Norman's mental state and how he changes through time!

A country I'd like to visit


Before thinking in any other countries I would like to travel first through Chile because It has such amazing places from north to south, I mean, Chile's natural diversity is unique and it's kinda dumb not experience it if you live here. Well, now answering the question I would like to go to Cuba because I have heard good comments about it related to their architecture, traditional places, landscape and cubans. Also I have seen some pictures of a friend that went there I believe in 2011 and it's really beautiful. 

I'm very ignorant about Cuba, I just know the things that must people know, for example, Che Guevara (that famous t-shirt guy hahaha), the Revolution and most importantly the fact that the state is responsible for health and education, these are free therefore accessible to all Cubans.    
Some of the things I would like to do there are eat their food, listen to live music, visit "The old Habana" and swim with dolphins. At first I would like to "feel the vibe" and then see what happens, in other words, I would reallly like to live a couple of weeks like a real cuban does, maybe have a little job or study something, meet new friends, travel through the entire island and enjoy the beaches...just being immersed in the cuban culture for a while.

My ideal job

I'm not going to lie to you and say my ideal or dream job would be related to psychology (or any kind of traditional job). I mean I like what I'm studying right now and what I think I'm going to do after university, but I've always wanted to have the life of a musician, especially being in a band. Just think about this: while you do something so awesome as music you can travel with your friends, meet other artists, new people, countries, cultures, get paid for it and why not use your fame to make the world a little bit better by sending messages through music, participate at social campaigns, etc.
I think the only quality I would need is musical aptitudes and some adaptability for the continuous changes this job has.
I would be good at this "job" because I'll be doing what I really really like, I mean, if you do something you really like no doubt you'll do it right.
Wow! if you ask me how difficult would be to find thid kind of job I think it's impossible. I only sing in the shower, I kinda suck at playing guitar and I have never written a song nor create a melody. So this will be part of my fantasies until I'm dead.
